MOLLY SPEARMAN, SALLY ATWATER STRUGGLE THROUGH RADIO SEGMENTS … 

This website has made its position on the upcoming runoff election for S.C. Superintendent of Education pretty clear: We’re against Democratic union lobbyist Molly Spearman, who for transparently self-serving reasons is running as a “Republican.”

Read our reasons why HERE … 

Anyway, the campaigns of Spearman and her opponent, Sally Atwater, have been all over us in recent days.  Both factions have audio clips of their opponents that they want to get out into the bloodstream.

First, we have a clip of Spearman taken from a recent appearance on WTMA radio in Charleston, S.C. – a clip in which Spearman has some trouble addressing the controversial Common Core federal education standards.

“Molly was on the show and admitted she hasn’t read the Common Core standards after saying she was against them,” Servatius says by way of explaining the clip. “When I pointed out that she has had three positions on them since January, she didn’t disagree.”

Here’s that audio …

Yikes …

Next up we have an unflattering clip of Atwater during an appearance on Greenville’s WORD radio – in which she struggles (mightily) to define her position on the issue of sex education in the classroom.

After Atwater’s interview was complete, WORD host Russ Cassell opined “what you have just heard is an example of a person running for public office on name recognition only who is clueless.”

Here’s that segment …

(Click to play)

Hmmmmmmm … yeah.

After the embarrassingly anemic turnout we saw in last week’s GOP and Democratic statewide primaries, we think it will be a miracle if anyone shows up to vote at all next Tuesday … and certainly these videos aren’t going to help either candidate.

The irony of two imbeciles vying for one of SC’s top education administration posts is so damned funny that I want Geddings to make a Photoshop for the occasion.

The winner will have won the equivalent of the Special Olympics.

You calling Tom Thompson and imbecile, too. Gallagher, obviously, but TT may not be. But I bet FITS “likes” him.

Anyway: here’s a GREAT read on Gallagher: http://scdigest.blogspot.com/2014/06/say-no-to-drugs-say-no-to-democrat.html

I’ll likely give my opinion in a day or two. I’m not happy with my choices, but it has to be done how I set it up…or we are in even more trouble.

Spearman represents the establishment. She is a long time government employee, she is collecting a state retirement while making 120 grand a year from a State Association of Governmental Association. She represent higher taxes, more regulations, and the Democratic way.

Republicans ought not elect republicans.

After all that I am still undecided as to which candidate will do a better job at the state level. If only GrandTango would take both of them to spend a 3-day weekend with him at Kiawah, and then report to us. In this instance I will defer to his intellectually analytical judgment.

Good God you are desperate to get your hands on education.

School choice is blossoming under Republicans, and students are actually getting education, and you are not getting as fat. Are you that Greedy, you have no care for children.

Fits Aint No Republican June 21, 2014 at 6:57 pm

Unsurprising that Fits would be for Atwater.

1.)Lee was probably one of his heroes growing up.Fits is basically a Republican strategist wannabe all his faux anti Republican gibberish notwithstanding and
2.)Sally is an idiot who will further damage public education in this state ,a well known Fits objective.

Why does this site give WTMA 5 seconds of attention? Half of Tara’a topics are inflated distorted and/or misleading. Her whole pitch is to just stir things up…. lacks credibility… disregards reality for manufactured drama!

the job of superintendent is administrating a fairly large government agency. it isn’t a policy job. the super’s opinion on common core has no more weight than their opinion on lebron vs jordan. on that basis, spearman and thompson are the most qualified candidates. which one wins; who cares?
